Summary: I'm Into Wild Foods
Review: I am into wild foods and this is the first one I have found that shows how to use kudzu. Most of the books about wild foods in the South feature plants that are hard to find and harvest. Kudzu is plentiful but I never knew what a gold mine it was until I read about a kudzu recipe contest that is open all during 2001 for cash prizes and bought this book.

Summary: Have not yet ordered the book
Review: I have not yet ordered or seen this book, but I am truely fascinated by the uses of Kudzu in as much as I have been able to find out about it on the internet. Actually, I currently have some Kudzu growing up onto a fence in my backyard, and yes, it is growing extremely rapidly. However, I have been unable to find out about the apparently called: "pods" that are growing on it.. they are NOT "flat" as I have seen noted, but round, tubular shaped, bigger at the bottom as it hangs on my fence (one is nearly 3 feet long!!). This has me totally curious and I would really love to know more about it. If someone could help, I would really appreciate it... thank you..
